 | | Re: Linetype 5 Help?
|
| Not having actually created any parts, I can't guarantee that the information below is correct. However, my understanding of linetype 5 is that you will normally use adjacent points in your overall curved shape for the two extra points. This is easy (...)

What about storing the data (e.g. for path information, maps, etc.) into an ARRAY instead of the datalog? With RIS2.0 and the latest NQC version you have (...)
